21 Mountain Summits with Prominence of 1,500 meters or greater

Please send comments to webmaster.

The following is the first listing for the likely prominences, including 21 ultra-summits, and six that appear to fall just short of the minimum cutoff.  Several of the summits appear to be directly on the border with Burma or China; they will appear on both lists.

FOOTNOTES

We strive to have the most accurate summit elevations in every instance.  Unfortunately, the authors have not had access to large-scale topographic mapping of the region.  We invite your comments and/or corrections if you have access to the most recent topographic surveys (1:50,000) or other elevation or place name data. 

Most of the elevations above were derived from Soviet 1:200,000 mapping and from detailed analysis of SRTM data.  Where there was a high degree of concurrence, elevations from the Soviet maps are used.  In several cases however, the elevations are estimated from SRTM data
